01/01/1997 - "Perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene has been used intraoperatively in the management of traumatic retinal detachments without any apparent ill effects."

02/01/1998 - "Tolerance to perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene and the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy with its extended use are not clear. "
11/01/1999 - "One hundred-five eyes with proliferative vitreoretinopathy undergoing vitrectomy using vitreon as an intraoperative surgical adjunct were randomized to 2 groups. "
01/01/1997 - "To evaluate the effect of perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene on the outcome of traumatic retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy, a retrospective study of 111 patients was performed at 35 tertiary care centers, both private practice and institutional. "
01/01/1995 - "The five most common postoperative complications among these patients as a whole were recurrent retinal detachment, with or without proliferative vitreoretinopathy (11.28%); macular pucker (5.85%); fibrinous reaction (4%); residual Vitreon (3.85%); and vitreous hemorrhage (2.57%)."
04/01/1994 - "A total of 140 consecutive patients underwent repair of retinal detachment associated with grade C2 to D3 proliferative vitreoretinopathy with perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene (Vitreon) as an intraoperative hydrokinetic tool. "

10/01/1992 - "Use of perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene in the management of suprachoroidal hemorrhages."
01/01/1997 - "Perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene was used intraoperatively to manipulate the retina hydrokinetically, remove intraocular foreign bodies, drain suprachoroidal hemorrhage, and to reattach the retina in the case of giant tears. "
10/01/1992 - "Perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene and other perfluorocarbon liquids may be beneficial in the treatment of certain cases of nonexpulsive suprachoroidal hemorrhages."
10/01/1992 - "The authors used the liquid perfluorocarbon perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene in the treatment of three patients with nonexpulsive suprachoroidal hemorrhage. "
01/01/1997 - "We believed that perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene would assist in manipulating the retina during surgery, removing intraocular foreign bodies, draining suprachoroidal hemorrhage, and reattaching the retina because of the perfluorocarbon's high specific gravity. "

01/01/1999 - "To evaluate the utility and efficacy of perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene in the management of retinal detachments secondary to severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy. "
01/01/1999 - "Perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene is a useful and effective intraoperative tool for the management of complex retinal detachments secondary to severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy."

07/01/1997 - "The purpose of the study was to determine the predictors of success and evaluate the use of perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene as an intraoperative and postoperative tool in the management of giant retinal tears in a multicentered collaborative study. "

08/01/1999 - "Subretinal Vitreon was observed in 24 patients (1.3%), retinal slippage in 20 patients (1.1%) (15 [6.9%] of the 216 patients with giant retinal tears) and residual Vitreon in 68 patients (3.6%). "
